Reputation, How-to ?

[Spyhawk]

Hello all susers,

We have the ability to give people "Reputation point". Positive point if we think he/she gives good answer and valuable infomation , and negativ point if we think he/she is just an ugly spammer
It's a very nice features to improve the forums quality indeed imho.

Ok, well, there is a "Rep." button on each post. But.. how can we know the actual reputation of people ? And where can we see our own actual reputation ?
When I click on the "Rep." button on one of my own post, I can see I have "10" reputation points : I presume that's the default number with which everybody begins, right ?

I've looked around, but was unable to find a way to see all this information.. Maybe can anyone help me ?

I had never even noticed this until you mentioned it.

I like Ubuntu Forums, because you can "thank" people and have that info added to their avatar, but I did not realize until now you could do something similar here as well.

Spyhawk,thanks didn't notice that until you mentioned it! I gave you an approval.
Now under your post count there's a green square hover over that & it'll say something in my case I'm "on a distinguished road."

I gave you reputation points too, just for bringing the reputation points feature to my attention.

Yeah ! That's it !
Thanks very much to see that fo me.

Seems I don't have good eyes sometimes

It looks like everyone, even people with one post, as well as people with hundreds or thousands of posts, are all traveling along this very same "distinguished road".

I just hope there are not too many traffic jams or toll booths on this "distinguished road".

Reputation has nothing to do with the number of posts a user has. See this thread which should explain a little bit.

If you click on your user control panel
you will see your reputation received and the points you obtained.

OK, everyone who posts something in this thread gets reputation points! Cheers!

Don't forget you can receive some "bad reputation" point. No need to do useless spam
